When they first met as boys, Xiao Lin already held Li Yunzhao, who was still powerless in the depths of the palace, in his heart.
As infighting in the court grew fiercer, the various factions watched like tigers ready to pounce, their blades pointed straight at the emperor's life. Unwilling to become a sacrifice to the struggle for power, Li Yunzhao seized the opportunity to stage his own death and vanish completely from the world.
After Li Yunzhao "died," Xiao Lin took charge of the turbulent realm and ascended the throne.
Three years passed in a flash. During an excursion outside the palace, Xiao Lin unexpectedly encountered in the wilderness the man who should have long since turned to dust.

His old love had returned, but the realm now belonged to a different house.
This time, he wouldn't give him another chance to escape.
